Sports Speak Up! Readers react (negatively, even) to Lobos’ first defeat

WHAT A GREAT Lobo run it was. With the state of New Mexico all abuzz, 15-0 was there for the taking. But layups galore the 5-8 Fresno State team kept making. Then came a late night collective groan. Coach Pitino still wouldn’t switch to a zone. If UNM can’t clog up the middle. Unfortunately their fate will continue to be playing second fiddle.

— Lobo Mystified

LOBOS GIVE ONE away to Fresno State with poor execution the last 4 minutes. House out of control, shooting off balance shots; and the Lobos couldn’t find a way to get the ball in Mashburn’s hands.
